Like a Skilful Doctor

The purpose of a teaching or instruction given by the teacher, no matter how simple or profound, is for us to put into practice. Some people take the teachings merely as an intellectual pursuit, or as something to be contemplated upon while on the meditation cushion. Sometimes, students are selective with what they want...

    A profound teaching on death meditation. Gone were those days when we mention death it is a tattoo .We have to accept death in reality , we came to this world with nothing so as we leave this world with nothing . Nothing belongs to us Death meditation in Buddhism is the practice of reflecting on mortality to reduce fear, letting go of worries at the time of death. We have to accept that aging, sickness and death come to everyone of us. Is better for us to prepare and practice the death journey by visualising as taught by our Guru. Rinpoche had explained clearly and simple for us of the importance of death meditation. Reading this blog again and watching the video on Rinpoche teaching to remind myself .
    Thank you Rinpoche and interesting sharing of Pastor Henry updates which will inspire more people to practice.

    Wow …with this Dorje Shugden illustrated story and graphic novel more people will get to know and understand Dorje Sgudeh better. Interesting story of how Dorje Shugden arose as a Protector to help us. Dorje Shugden is an enlightened being who is also an emanation of Manjushri. In the ‘Music Delighting the Ocean of Protectors, HH Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche has mentioned the history and benefits of Dorje Shugden clearly , truly and preserving the practice for future generations. Its an accurate account whole story of Dorje Shugden from the very beginnings of this great protector. This novel surely suits all old and young people to read it.
    Thank you Rinpoche .

    Duldzin Drakpa Gyaltsen biography very inspiring reading it . He was one of the principal disciples of Je Tsongkhapa, who was the founder of the Gelugpa school of Tibetan Buddhism. He was a great scholar, yogi and master of Sutra and Tantra. He was an exemplary monk and highly respected scholar who possessed an unrivalled knowledge and understanding of the Vinaya texts. Renowned for his strict adherence to the Vinaya or Buddhist monastic code. He did many inspiring great deeds such as building of Monasteries, produced many great disciples, scholars . In order to preserve the precious teachings of the Buddha, he composed a number of important works on the Vinaya, composing sadhanas for mandala rituals and commentaries, consecration rites and so forth. Interesting read.
    Thank you Rinpoche. and Pastor David

    Good day, I wish to share my testimony with all of you. I have daily 9 to 5 jobs but while I work, I try my luck at playing instant Lotto. On this particular day, I decided to seek help online regarding tips for winning the lottery and I saw many individuals testifying about Meduza spells. I reached out to him and informed him that I needed help to win the lottery and he clarified the process to me stating that after he casts the spell, it will take 48 hours for him to provide me the winning numbers which I accepted. I followed all his instructions and he provided me with the numbers to enter the Lottery. After the draw the following morning, I received a notification on the Lottery app on my phone indicating that I was the lucky winner of $273 million on the New Jersey Lottery and I’m here to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Meduza.

Thousands of tourist visited this Holy place every year , Kathmandu a place of significance in the Buddhist world with many Sacred places, beautiful ancient architecture, cultural festival and history.

    A house blessing and protection prayer creates a peaceful, spiritually environment for us. It invites divine presence into every corner, that’s awesome. It is believed that as the prayers vibrate they create energy, protecting the home and bestowing good luck on its residents. Reading this old post ad looking at those beautiful pictures paints a thousands words. Pastor and team did a great job blessing each of those houses. Inviting a Pastor to do house blessing asking for protection, joy and clearing negatives energy before the start of a New year is wonderful.
    Thank you.

    Vajrayogini Ugra-Tara in Sankhu, Nepal is one of the most ancient Buddhist sites of Nepal is tucked away among the pines on top of a hill. The shrine located on the forested Manichunda hill. There are also several caves surrounding the site. Recording to locals it is said that some of the 84 Mahasiddhas of India have meditated here. This sacred temple has attracted thousands of pilgrims and tourists from all over the world yearly . This sacred Sankhu has a long history of pilgrimage built in the 16th century. I am so fortunate able to visit this sacred temple few years ago.
    Looking at those pictures is a blessing and reading it to get more understanding of such an scared place to pay a visit.

    n Buddhism, attachment is the intense grasping or clinging to impermanent things. All these things ,people, and ideas is taught as the core root of human suffering. Everything in life constantly changes, when we try to hold on to or rather control these things will leads to inevitable disappointment, anxiety, and distress. Such as wealth , belongings and relationship , at the end of the day it will disappoint us. The Buddha taught us renunciation, letting go and non-attachment is because by our default as if those things were permanent. When we recognize that all things and belongings are temporary . When we stop expecting things to stay the same, the desire to cling to them naturally fades. Letting go of the need for control and embrace the reality of exactly of what is happening in this present moment. We could let go of our attachments, by practicing meditation, looking forward and moving on. Still learning from this post.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Pastor for these profound post.

    My husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone else. He started coming home late from work, he hardly cared about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn’t even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr. odumeje  can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and told him my problems and he told me what to do and I did it and he did a spell for me. 24 hours later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promised never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal, and my family and I are living together happily again. I Highly recommend Dr. Odumeje, he is Powerful and really loves spell caster. If you have any problem contact him and I guarantee you that he will help you. He will not disappoint you. Text/WhatsApp  +2349064108102  Or  VIA

    Manjushri, the Bodhisattva of Wisdom, is the embodiment of transcendent awareness in Mahayana Buddhism. Manjushri practice helps us develop our wisdom when we do it sincerely and with proper visualisation. Manjushri practice can be used to help us with our memory. The practice of reciting the Manjushri mantra is an ancient and powerful Tibetan Buddhist prayers that cultivates wisdom, clarity, and insight. Great teachings in this article, explaining the details of Manjushri.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great teachings all about sponsoring the Dharma that has many benefits.
